TRAINING THE YOUNG.
The Parental Duty which Society Owes to
the Youth Of the Land.

The Parental Duty which Society Owes to
the Youth Of the Land.
The parental duty of the community
is something which even our modern
philosophers, as rule, neglect to em-
phasize, and yet the fact remains that
the community has parental duty to
discharge toward every minor. A child
is not merely the parents child; it is al
ready member of society, and it is the
duty of society to see that proper ad-
vantages for the training of youth are
provided. The Importance Of the home
surroundings upon the growing lad or
lass is something which all enlightened
people appreciate, but the popular sense
Of the parental duty of the community
is yet to be awakened.
The community is responsible equally
with the parent for the training of the
child. It is the duty of the community
to see that the child is provided with an
education which shall surely reveal
himself to himself, that may awaken
some definite aspiration within him and
bend his energies toward preparation
for some calling by which he is by tenn
permanent and power Of application
qualified. 1t is the parental duty Of so
ciety to see that its youth are trained to
become useful members of the COM
munity, and not set adrift upon the
world unprepared to hew their way.
Otherwise, society must foot the bills.

near the temple OF that goddess; and he
built temple for the Kings daughter
Hontsen, near this temple" It existed
then, at any rate before the days of the
Pyramids of Gizeh; and Maspero thinks
that If it is not actually prehistoric, it
may, at all events, be looked upon as
the oldest monument in "ancient
Egypt"
Set into the breast of the Sphnix is the
celebrated stella Of Thothmes ~. of the
twenty-third dynasty. It is fourteen
feet high. and contains long inscrip-
ton, recounting how the King owed his
elevation to the throne to the interfer-
ence Of the god Hormakhu on his behalf.
Bas-reliefs upon the tablet show us the
King offering incense and pouring out
a libation to the Sphinx, with beard
and other divine attributes. It also re-
lates his dream. wherein the god bids
him dig away the sand. The following
translation is quoted from Brugsh Bey:
'On one of these days it happened.
when the Kings son Thutmes had
arrived on his journey about the time
of midday, and had stretched him
self to rest in the shade of this great
god, that sleep overlook him. He
dreamt in his slumber at the moment
when the sun was at the zenith, and it
seemed to him as though this great god
spoke to him with his own mouth, just
as father speaks to his son, addressing
him thus: Behold me, look at me, thou,
my son Thutmes. ] am thy father Hor-
makhu, Khafra, Ra, Tum. The king
dom shall be given to thee, and thou
shalt wear the white crown and the red
crown (that is, of Upper and Lower
Egypt 'on the throne of the earth-god
Seb, the youngest among the gods.
The world shall be thine in its length
and in its breadth, as far as the light of
the eye of tho lord of the universe
shines. Plenty and riches shall be thine;
the best from the interior Of the land,
and rich tributes from all nations. Long
years shall be granted thee as thy term
of life. My countenance is gracious
towards thee, and my heart clings to
thee. II win give1 thee the best of all
things. The sand of the district in
which have my existence has covered
me up. Promise me that you will do
what / wish in my heart; then shall ]
know whether thou art my son, my
help. Go forward; let me be united to
~
"After this CThutmes awoke, and he
repeated all these speeches., and he
understood (the meaning) Of the words
of the god, and laid them up in his
heart, speaking thus to himself: i see
how the dwellers in the temple of the
city honor this god with sacrifcial gifts
without thinking Of freeing from sand
the work of the King1 Khafra, the
statue which was made to Tum-Hor-
makhu.n
The rest of the inscription is de-
stroyed; and Mr.. Flinders Petrie tells
us that since the last time the tablet
was uncovered, the word Khafra has
scaled off from the stone. At any rate
we learn from the Corpms Iascriptionam
Grecarum that the King uncovered the
monster image of the god, exposing
him entirely to view, and that the in.
habitants of Pi-usiri-the city of Osiris
-Busiris) undertook to be the guides
for the numbers of strangers who then
as now, focked to see what was even
| at that period one Of the maryels oi
antiquity. Chambers Journal.
